There are numerous things that stores seem to do to take some of the stress of the holidays off of their minds. This holiday I noticed more stores doing things to control the flow of traffic, and also how some stores have streamlined their checkout process.
Last year one of the stores I went into rang each item into the register individually by punching in the sku numbers. This year that same store had Symbol LS2208 units installed. This made it much more time saving at the store. Point, shoot, and done. I was very happy with all that I got accomplished. Now if they would only have the Black Friday sales all weekend, then I would be set. The lines are usually brutal. The store my hubby works at is having their after Thanksgiving sale for the entire weekend. The same things that were sold on Black Friday are up for grabs all weekend. Sony is definitelly a smart on for that.
If I only needed tvs, and PS3 units I would have had it made. They are giving away PS3 units with certain tvs, and the prices were extremelly low, and noone else came even close to the prices.

I hate shopping in the regular store!
I’m more the QVC type of gal.
